| Abstract/Contents: | "Nematodes present significant challenges to the management of turfgrass, resulting in adverse effects on quality, density, and playability. Timely and precise identification of plant-parasitic nematodes is important for effective management practices and minimizing excessive input costs. Leveraging image processing and deep learning techniques can greatly enhance our ability to identify and distinguish these nematodes. This study aims to explore the potential of deep learning algorithms in the accurate identification of plant parasitic nematodes that primarily affect turfgrass. A dataset consisting of 23,813 nematode images belonging to seven groups, including lance, lesion, ring, root-knot, stunt, spiral, and cyst nematodes, was employed to train and validate four different models including EfficientNet B0, EfficientNet B4, MobileNetV2, and VGG-16. Adam Optimizer has been reported as the most efficient optimizer in similar studies. Hence, we used the Adam optimizer and tested different learning rates. Additionally, we assessed different validation splits, including 20-80%, 30-70%, and 40-60%, and various dropout thresholds. The number of epochs varied between 100 and 200, depending on the models. EfficientNet B0 outperformed other models in the preliminary analysis where it resulted in an average accuracy of over 95% across training and validation sets with a learning rate of 0.000005 and a validation split of 20-80% (test-train, respectively). The average training and validation loss values of 0.13 and 0.18, respectively, indicated that the model was not overfitted. These findings demonstrate the potential of employing deep learning algorithms to develop applications that can be utilized in diagnostic and research laboratories, enabling accurate and fast identification of nematodes. Such tools would greatly benefit laboratories with limited personnel trained in nematode identification, enabling them to accurately identify and classify plant parasitic nematodes." |
